I also now have merch: store.dftba.co...
BONUS TIPS: If you're shopping for shoes to use, bring the battery pack (or something about the same size) with you. Try the shoes on, then place the battery pack inside the shoe. Then you will be able to tell whether or not the shoes will work for this project! Not all shoes will work!
And if you want to use shoes with real bendy soles, just put the lights around the back of the shoe, because then the lights won't get stressed around the point where your foot bends! [see here: • Blinkschuhe Tutorial f... for an example]

P.s. if you're thinking that you'd actually like to make these for yourself, then please watch until the end of the video AND make sure to read the tips in description box! :)
I'm definitely going to try
Can you please make a belle Diy costume. Where she's in her maiden blue outfit
And maybe tinker bell
+Annika Victoria Annika!! can you please try to make one of these? sg.carousell.com/p/25344706/
+Annika Victoria Does it get uncomfortable having the battery pack in the tongue? The pack looked kinda big :/
For all those saying she could have just bought the $34 pair, its called a hobby. Some people just enjoy doing things for fun or for the challenge. Plus, with this DIY, you can choose whatever style of shoes you like, colour of light etc. so much you can customise to your liking. And you gain satisfaction from making it yourself too. (Its like how some people enjoy baking even though the cost of the ingredients is higher than buying a cake from a bakery)
Oh thank you, I feel like nobody gets that haha, the amount of times I've tried to explain... (And also been perplexed about why people are even watching crafting tutorials if they don't like to craft...) ❤️
These remind me of the shoes we all loved as kids, when you step down, they light up?!?!? Remember those?!
+Jessicaisrealawesome NEXT PROJECT. ;) Just gotta get good at electronics first somehow, haha.
Forgive me for not reading through 3,000 comments, but hopefully this shows up for anyone who wants to make them: you can get LED strips like this that pull apart at the joins instead of being cut; that might be a good solution for people who have a strong bend in their shoes from where they walk. (You'd just end up reconnecting the LEDs, rather than replacing them.)
That ' What ever its 2009' sign gives me life
Same
+
reminds me if my MySpace days lol
True lol
Whoa... This almost has one million views??! Awesome! Thank you all so much for watching :D ❤️
Congrats Annika~ ^^
Thank you so much! I'm going o make some of your things for a secret Santa thing!
can you make m some for a late Christmas gift plzz I wear a 7 low top plzz and plzz reply was soon as possible
+Annika Victoria no thank YOU for your videos!
+Annika Victoria If anyone's looking for a pair of these one the low, they can be found on amazon now for 15$ I think. I'll try find the link or something. I remember I got mine from this site where you just enter a competition, must have been a lucky find at the time.
EDIT: Oh damn, this sites still around. It was from here: 8026.freeledsneakers.com/ lemme know if it allows you to enter.
Makes me just want to but the led light strip to see what and where I can stick it in.. Seems fun lol
i was just thinking that.
yeah
yea u can put it on other clothing or something
Buy for sure... She spent the same amount of money and they broke... And they don't look as good, plus the battery pack looks like it is uncomfortable
Yeah and the batteries don't look so good when you're wearing it...
You can probably get the LEDs cheaper if you have half a clue about wires.
Hello I don't know what you are talking bout me when you call my phone and text you call my name and say hey I got it wrong lol but I got it no one
The shoes you buy and make look the same, also doesn’t have to be high tops, plus both have a ugly bat pack and leds are known to die out easily
I really need a pair of these. I'm in the marching band at my school and these would be perfect for parades.
Zuzu Gaston I love how you say it. in my mind I think you say in high pitch voice and I would be like "omg what is that girl with that light shoes" in high pitch voice and hand on my mouth
Similar lead up shoes in the dark we will say where she's we want show we do you have a picture for we can search for she's we want please Sarah glitter So you nothing 7 light of
Watching the old classic videos and pretending like they are still around on TH-cam. Fond memories
Shoes- $10
Lights -10+10 = $20 ( 2 lights )
10+20= $30
eBay shoes = $35
$ 5 won't hurt
+SMILE NUTELLA It's not just about the $$ cost to the consumer.
It's about not supporting sweatshops, upcycling things you already own & having less of an impact on the environment. Plus crafting for crafts sake. Coz this is a DIY channel.
+Annika Victoria I i know and I admire you for making these shoes but considering the others who don't craft but expect the shoes to be pricey so they force themselves to make them . Just because they like these . I was pointing out that if you don't want to make these because maybe you are not crafty , they are just a little less than the actual shoe price , trust me I wasn't saying it in a negative way:)
+Annika Victoria the point of these videos is to say whether it would be better from a budget stand point to make thrift or buy. and yes the five dollars won't hurts so really why not just buy them. the ethical reasons are a whole other issue.
eBay I'd actually biding, so if someone offers more, then it will be theirs ( if its a normal persons sale) but if its from the a solid factory, then they will automatically sell it to you but they can cost up to $65 and more, this was so cheap compared to ebay
+Da Mystery Gal on the video it said $35-$95 and on eBay I saw them for $30
mmmm....beans
yes we watcht the video to
ha ha
emilly hi good
i know :D ;)
+Eline Wille your profile pic omg
I don't get the comments on this video tbh... Some say the shoes look bad and don't work, others keep pointing out you can get these for cheaper. Yeah. Hi. Have you realized that getting shoes for $20 is always a bad idea. They'll most likely be horrendous quality and break pretty quickly. At least with this diy you won't have to throw the shoes away when the lights stop working.
+BlackDiamondGirl Gaming What if they were made by child workers or overseas by illegal sweat shops? Basically you're rallying for slave labor.. Sometimes it's better to just make it yourself
Thank you someone said it
+Jem the Bee Thats the dumbest thing I've ever heard. I do dislike child labor a lot, but the thing is we don't know who makes these shoes. You can't just bring in a serious topic like that i just makes you sound stupid. People don't have the time to make shoes, people are way to lazy to shoes. Maybe if somebody does try to make this they might fail so they could have lost money. Plus if this person buys shoes that means they basically support child labor, thats so dumb. +BlackDiamondGirl Gaming probably wasn't even thinking about child labor so don't accuse someone of supporting something.
+La Fimoteuse Qui Craft scuse me, in wich page did u buy them? And how long was the sipping?
Mine cos 18 I've had them for 2 months and they still work perfectly fine and waterproof
I spent £70+ on these shoes online, after a few wears, the battery stopped working in one shoe, I requested another battery and the battery came from China although the company was British. The shoes stopped working only after under 10 wears, thank god I subscribed to you because now I can re-make these shoes. And I'm getting more and more fashion ideas
I think this is the first video I ever watched from you, thanks for inspiring me to become better at sewing
Even though they're the same price as the ebay shoes, if/when the lights break you's have to buy a whole new pair of shoes but with these you only have to replace the lights
This channel seriously helps me so much, with so many of my cosplays! If I didn't know about this video, I would of went spending a good 200 dollars! Thank you!
its only costs 25 dollars?!
+BananaBelle
she says cosplay so she may be using this idea to install LEDs in something that are not shoes and not available on the internet
Cocokitty98 oh thx xx😊
I stumbled upon this video due to my suggestion box and boy was I not disappointed. What a great channel! Love your stuff and I hope to soon start making some of these DIYs!
+Janinakins Thank you!
this is my first time watching her and i subsribed she is awesome
Ikr! This is my first video I've watched of hers and now I'm addicted to her videos!
right
same here
Same here
ElizaSimsfan same
I love this. My son is autistic with an intellectual disability, so even though he's a teenager, he still loves character light up shoes but I couldn't find any that fit so I'm trying to custom make some for him. Ty for the video tutorial, you did great
just wanted to say you're a wonderful parent and i hope the shoes turn out great
I just found your channel today and I think i've watched every Make Thrift Buy already.
+MissCin101 Ohhh! thank you!! :D
i think this is so much better than the shoes with leds(the orgininal)
Yeah
You m'lady just got yerself a new subscriber (;
*tips fedora*
+Pinkkk3 I'm
+Pinkkk3 true
+Pinkkk3 lol
I have just discovered your channel 2 hours ago and now im on a diy marathon :) LOVE YOUR VIDEOS
"what's inside" actually cut open a pair of these shoes and those are pretty much the lights they use 👍
I think its better just buy the shoes :D Its easier and it looks better.
Sarah Velez OMG PPL THEY ARE NOT THAT FUDGING CHEAP they cost like 30-40and up ( see what I did there, fudging?😉😉😂😂😂😂)
you are right but making them makes them more valuable.
Exactly
+Reaper chan on ebay
+Sus0220 Not for me, since i wear size 13 shoes and I can't find any in my size
Loved this. Especially at the end, when your at the grocery store. 😀
+Nita Brantley :P
YES! I never have to be jealous of a child's shoes again! #Winning
The reason she made these is because if it is a low price it is from a sweatshop, so if you don't support sweatshops you can make them. And a lot of people say that they are bad quality and dosen't come in their size, so it is better to make the yourself.
That's a pretty amazing thing to do
Would not do this project because the idea of batteries sucks. I really like the original desigs because its chargeable with usb cable
+Igabella I was thinking the same and wondering if you could change the battery type required. Didn't realise the actual designs have chargers.. how weird to charge your shoes :P
+Igabella get chargeable batteries lol
that is very doable with cheap modules from china-ebay. but that will require soldering skills and a basic understanding of electronics. (also LED tape isnt the best choice because, as you can see, it doesnt take repeated flexing well)
EL-wire isnt nearly as bright and wont change colors, but seems better suited for the job, and there are tiny inverters, running on a single CR2032 coin cell.
+Igabella I think they have those type of light strips. Idk
+Cuda FX vgtrfbnklzkmsjskjue. , MSI
Kowl!is!.z)!.kd
ppds kd😇😃😃😃🏥
Ok, so this all cost you about $40? You can get these in other stores for around $30 or less ... I have more own pair, which I spent about $24 on
This is really cool though :)
What? Where? I just bought them, and in The Netherlands it costs €90,00
+Florence John Echague that's so true I like em so much but there so pricie in the Netherlands
Inge Bakker I know right? It's because of VAT (of wat we btw noemen)
But it's still pricey, I agree
+Florence John Echague jep te duur
I love the "WHATEVER IT'S 2009" sign XD (The toadstool toad shall let you in :)
+o FuzziePeach333 o OH MY GOSH YES FINALLY SOMEONE GOT THE REFERENCE hahaha
OMG thank you so much for replying! :D Happy holidays!
4:17 yo the way she did that battery pouch was sick ❤️
all of the people saying that you can get them for $30 or cheaper: those shoes most likely were made in a sweatshop or something like it and she's said before in videos that she doesn't want to support something like that
It's like thread banger
yaaaaasssss
yaahh
+Cuddly Kohnnie but much better
😂💙✨ best comment so fat 💜💖
far* ❤️💞😭
Genius! This was so awesome Annika! I think I'll do this to a pair of flatforms! 🙌🏿 😍 🎉 xxx
Yayay! 😁
I'd rather just buy a pair for $70 on Amazon. Save time and probably money in the long run. Great video, though :)
they also have some on AliExpress for $22 bucks.
rambling corpse
Good to know :D
+rambling corpse Yeah but is it made in sweatshops? Thats too cheap so it feels like it os
Hola donde conseguiste las luces
+Gris Rodriguez en amazon o las puedes concegir en internet
You are super smart. You make something special from something simple
The cut away from music video to beans in a grocery store gave me life. Love your videos!
wow I hope the battery pack goes a bit smaller! like.. 2AA or 2AAA, I wouldn't mind at all even if it lasts half a day than having to walk around with heavy batteries on both of my shoes!
but else than that they look awesome!!!
but the shoes look kinda bulky tho
wait does the battery pack thing that you did inside hurts the feet??
Actually,no.
Cause it haves the batting.
+Danijela Vujicic thank you x
+Danijela Vujicic are you from Croatia?
for the cord i would have poked a hole right above the rubber part of the shoes and ran it inside the shoe tried to run the wire under the lining of the shoe.. the wire then would be less noticeable.. I would also suggest some kind of safe seal over the light strip...
this is awesome because I saw a girl in my school wearing the original and now instead of wasting so much money buying the original now I can spend about 10-15 dollars because I own tons of high tops.Thx so much for the video
lol thats tragic asf like what are those tho
OHHHH HE NEEDS SOME MILK!
+TinyGame Play great now I feel like drinking milk
+flori trap queen what are you
+flori trap queen relatable life comment
This is great! Thank you :)
this is so cool!
+Rian Phin omg rian we both watch her I live
Thanks so much. Now I can easily make these shoes - my flat feet have led to a hard time finding comfy shoes that actually look good. I can try this DIY on my old sneakers. YAY!!
This is 2 years old ?! Ahhh I remeber this so much ! This was the first video by you I watched, Im so glad I did !!!
I found shoes with that lights on Alieexpres for €25,I don't know how much it is in dollars. Very fun video!
€20,50 *
I'd be careful I've heard it's a pretty sketchy site
+Luis Garcia Yup. I once tried to buy some shirts, but it didn't have PayPal (which is one of the safest methods of online payment), but instead all kinds of weirds credit cards. I ended up not buying anything.
I ordered them for €15 and i ordered more stuff on aliexpress and they all arived
+Karlijn Scheen I know, I mean you can place orders, but you may get scammed.
So sad that Rosaliesaysrawr did this diy and didn't credit you! :(
please can you show how to make a backless bra?
I've been looking into a backless dresses, but don't want to worry about the bra showing.
thinks!
I love love this I work at a night club and this fun project is a sure way to earn more tips! can't wait exact video!
those shoes you bought are really sweet. for real I'd buy those and wear them every day
I feel like this is good if you just want to DIY something with friends or for fun but if she spent $33 roughly & she already owned some of the materials plus she has to repair them it may be worth just buying the $36 ones off amazon otherwise its really cool
you can get the shoes you used on the thumbnail for $25. to be honest these look rubish.
+Diogo Usami where? :O
+Gabby Peaches wish.com
Gabby Peaches UPDATE! THEY COST $16USD NOW: www.wholesalebuying.com/product/fashion-unisex-led-light-lace-up-luminous-shoes-sportswear-sneaker-casual-shoes-usb-charging-158312?
exactly!
Lol it doesn't look like rubbish.
i have bought those shoes from amazon, but one shoe doesnt work 😭😭
sigh... I know the pain.. I don't shop at amazon anymore because they sell fake makeup and fake everything to be honest 😅 so ya...
+
send them back
+MsPrincess0019 as long as you didn't shop from an unofficial vendor then you can return them
How long did they last? or did they come like that? because im thinking of buying some.. if you know which website, company that would be amazing 😆
I Actually have no knowledge about sewing but when I kinda learned how to do it this was actually super easy 😜 now I have amazing light up shoes! I thank you
I Ordered Some and they're arriving tomorrow. I realized they are one of the best selling LED shoes ever so I'm expecting good results. If my 5 star shoes don't work I am going to try this.
*Looks at comments to see "What are thoooooose"* *is disappointed*
Hmm..........beans.
You should do embroidered converse/shoes!!!!!
me encanto la idea!! pero para cada zapato hay que añadir una batería??
me ayudo de mucho gracias!
saludos desde MEXICO!!
I had a pair of "shop-boughten" light-up shoes that were pretty cheap, as I have Aussie Size Adult 2-3, so I got them in the kid's section of Payless!!! But it looks like a fun project - Also, it's really good if you go jogging or walking at night & you're wearing dark clothes - it makes you much more visible to drivers! Plus, you look kinda nerdy-cool!
You could've get one of 100 and one of 50cm because 65+65=130 lol
But they're so cool😭💖
+효화신 But i needed 2 battery packs ;)
Annika Victoria yeah but don't you get the battery pack when you order the 50cm?
+효화신 but I needed them to be 65cm, to fit around the shoe. Oh I think I know what you mean - but I didn't know how to join 2 lights together so I needed 2 battery packs, with at least 65cm each of light in both
Annika Victoria ohh, okay then. But the DIY us so cool I might make one for myself.
Aniki someone stole this video and called it theirs the youtube name is olipretty .
+Lps GeekTv thank you for letting me know
No problem anything for my all time fave youtuber! :-D
+Annika Victoria can you make me all white light up shoes plz
+Jayda Jones you'd do the same thing with a different shoe and fabric for battery pouch.
Did you know that its actually way cheaper to just by them professionally made from amazon!
Getting cheap fashion isn't the point of this series, if there's a shoe like this that's really cheap, chances are the people making the shoe aren't getting paid much. This is an ethical and fun way to get these shoes, that doesn't include any sort of sweatshop workers.
+Chemical Kitti But, they break! 😂
KawaiiStrucked not once she fixed the problem, you live and you learn
you can get them for 13.00
It's actually not. Why buy the shoes on Amazon when they don't last long? Then you have to buy a whole nother pair of shoes. Whereas you just buy a new strip of LED lights.
omg thank you. you are so helpful,creative,resorsful and smart. love your voice btw
I'm absolutely in love with your channel
these look kind of bad because the batter part look terrible and the lights broke in a week. finally you made does shoes for 33.80 dollars right?when you could have brought a pair for 34 dollars:/
sorry *battery
by the way"what are thoooseee!! lol
+Nazifa Tabassum I forgot the s*what are thooooooooooossssssseeeeee.lol
+Nazifa Tabassum this is the most pitiful comment thread I've ever seen lmao
+Ocean Spurrell 😂😂🙌🏼🙌🏼
You quite literally light up the room when you walk in.
I bought them for 20$ on aliexpress 😂
Me to
Did you receive them yet ? And of so how are they
+Denitsa Ivanova My friend did too, but i don't recommend though, hers broke in 5 days. :I
+Denitsa Ivanova or 1 week, I honestly don't know, ONE works and the other doesn't.
I also want these pair of shoes...how much time does it take for shipping?
I have with this like 20 times and recreated them but I still love this vid
Watched*
LOVED your dancing in the alley. You rock 🙌🏼
When you love how these look but aren't confident enough to actually wear them out ;_;
in the beginning u showed u can get them 34 dollars u spent 33..
these ones you can replace the batteries if they stop lighting up, the other ones you buy have constant complaints on the lights dying or not working, in the long run, these last longer ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i dont see the problem unless youre like me and are lazy and rather buy them lol
Plus you can do this with any kind of shoes.
i wanna make this but i don't have the money and the materials
Well hot damn! My mother would have made me all the light up shoes if this were around 20 years ago! I love this!!!!
She's such a genius! How does she think of these ideas?!?!
this is just as expensive as buying them on ebay..
SOOO TRUE
+XxWifiZonexX
Also the super cheapest ones off ebay aren't going to be very good quality.
Also if they're that cheap, the shoes are probably made in a sweatshop.
Also you're not demanding as many resources from the world (a new pair of shoes doesn't have to be made), because you're recycling something that already exists. And preventing unwanted clothes from going into
landfill.
Also, as anyone who loves to DIY knows - crafting for the sake of crafting!
There's so many reasons why this series exists other than to just "make
things for cheaper" :)
They turned out pretty cool, but for a few extra dollars you could just buy em. :\ But it's always cool making your own stuff.
The idea behind this series isn't just about making things for cheaper, it's also about rejecting fast fashion and recycling things that have been abandoned (like shoes from a secondhand store!) and giving them new purpose :) so yeah, it was almost the same price as the cheapest ones you can find on eBay (which wouldn't be very good quality and were probably made in a sweatshop...), but because of all those reasons, that's also why I don't buy things, even if it costs me nearly the same to make them :) I hope that helps you understand more what this series is about! I need to make it clearer in my videos, I think.
I want these in heels........NEON HEELS
Omg to put the lights under the heels not around them, epic shoes
:O You could even hide the battery pack underneath, in the negative space under the shoe! This could work!
+Annika Victoria do it do it do it!!
Annika Victoria Yaaaaasssss it can work!
I really want to make myself a pair but terrible at stitching what else would you reccomend to hold the battery pack on the inside bearing in mind id be wearing theese for my 10 hour shift at work *walking nonstop* thanks HUGE FAN ♡
Yours actually look cooler than the ones you showed at the beginning!
Did anyone else think she could've got the 120 one of it was for two shoes 60vm each?
+LivingAsTori XX nope, because I needed two separate battery packs ;)
lol yea i did 60x2 120 lol
It was 65 cm not 60 cm
No because for each shoe you need a separate battery pack getting only 120 would've been only one battery pack.
and she needs 2 batteries but if she bought 1 there wouldnt be 2 batteries
lol. aint nobody got time for that! XD
Who else came from Hayley Williams channel????????
🙋🙋
🙋
MEEE
me!
+Audrey Annette Howell WAIT WHAT. How did you guys find this from Hayley Williams?? :O
I love your channel, after watching a few of your videos I'm already wanting to get into sewing 👍👍
YAS QUEEN OF DIY & THRIFTING
I bought the brand name shoes for 25$
What are the called???
A SMaRt foodie I downloaded and app called "wish" and searched led shoes, I ordered them, then I got them
+Ayanna Sarr Thay app have many cheap things , But with very low quality . :/
Oscar Peña I guarantee it isn't I have ordered many times
Ayanna Sarr I've too and its poop
Whatever its 2009 😂👏🏻
its look like..... shiiit
Oh thats cool, you know what else looks like shit, you.
+Olivia Strefezza maybe i look like shit but you are shit
+Mert Yilmaz omg thats so cool!!!? Guess what, I. Didnt. Ask.
+Olivia Strefezza what a great comeback...
+Olivia Strefezza but he/she didnt ask for your reply tho stop acting like an angry 10 year old lmao
To everyone who is saying the price was close to the online ones ect...as Annika has spoken about on multiple occasions, Make, Thrift, Buy is so you don't contribute and buy from fast fashion and cheap online stores whose products are probably made in bad conditions in sweat shops. This was you still get the shoes without contributing to this bad system.
Oh man I'm totally using this for my next cosplay!
damn Daniel
I'd rather buy than make this bc it looked uncomfortable and the lights are kinda ugly and it broke lol
might as well just buy the actual shoe
The video is awesome, i'm surely gonna make a pair of these for myself. And the video is hilarious too.. hahaha.. i love the whole thing!
What a brilliant craft idea, you so are so clever!! Great job on the shoes, you blow me away!
